A great many thanks go out to the amazing generous gifters! You all deserve the highest praise for making so many people happy (that is, except for a certain cynical twat, who has no place being in your company)! Also, greatly appreciative gratuitous gratitude goes out to the Fox'n'Chimp combo, bar, grill, and pub, for their steadfast perseverance and commitment to this grand exercise in simultaneously stroking some people's egos while indulging others with hardly any regard for decency or propriety. Truly! So much joy and bounty spread around in such harsh economic times, for shame! Shame and thanks, though; shame and thanks!
And before this turns into unsalvageable rambling, let me single out the great and incorrigible DampSquib, who seems to have made a fair number of people happy, myself shamefully included. Now please stop being quite so generous, you're threatening to squeeze out us second-rate gifters :P
